This is such a heartfelt article. The first paragraph in this article got me choked up. I recently lost my dad in December and I would catch myself apologizing to others for getting emotional. Your response to your client was exactly what was needed - to just be present in the moment.
Every time I come to this space I feel so understood and safe. this is exactly how I have been feeling for the past 5 years. .. I have had so many losses , yet I feel ashamed and inappropriate for feeling emotional at times, so I keep hiding them.
Thank you for making this space a place where i can be myself and feel normal.
This is such a great read Patrick. The words that stood out for me are "release the thoughts, feelings, and things that no longer serve you" what a great anchor ⚓

Thank you, Katerina … this was a tough one to write. It required vulnerability.
